Pittsburgh Youth Lacrosse is open to all boys and girls in the Pittsburgh area. We practice in Fox Chapel, PA. We are a non-profit, community based program run by volunteers who are interested in creating a fun and challenging developmental lacrosse progr

Lacrosse is primarily a spring sport. Practice for middle school children begins in early March. Games begin in April and end in late May. There are many area summer camps, travel teams and even a league which plays on Wednesday evenings (boys only) in the summer. PYLAX runs a fall skills clinic and some children play indoor lacrosse in the winter.

Lower school children begin practice in late March and end the spring season in mid-May. They also have the opportunity to join our PYLAX fall skills program.

Where can I learn about winter and summer opportunities to play outside of PYLAX?

Summer camps are listed in Lacrosse magazine; a subscription is included when you sign up for a US Lacrosse membership. You can also find camps by searching on the Internet.

There are many opportunities for volunteers to help make PYLAX a better organization. Please contact one of the board members to inquire about specific opportunities. You can find them listed under the "Contact us" tab on our web site.

Why must I register for US Lacrosse in addition to PYLAX?

US Lacrosse is the governing body for lacrosse in the United States. When all PYLAXx members register for a US Lacrosse membership, PYLAX gets a discount on our insurance. There are other benefits such as information on area events and 6 issues of Lacrosse Magazine.
